How you differentiate between single phase and three phase transformer?
A single-phase transformer works with a single-phase supply, while a 3-phase transformer is used with a 3-phase supply. A single-phase transformer has 2 wires on the primary and secondary (ignoring taps) while a 3-phase tansformer has 3 or 4 wires on the primary and secondary.
Would you install three-phase transformer or bank of three single phase transformer in a large power station and justify by comparing the two schemes?
A three-phase transformer bank is often used in power stations because it is easier to construct and transport very large single-phase transformers, compared with constructing and transforming an equivalent-capacity three-phase transformer.
Why would you use a three phase transformer in place of a single phase transformer?
the necesscity of two three phase transformers operating in parallel are as follows...if the one transformer fails to give supply,then another transformer can be used in parallel and hance,continuity of supply can be maintained.one transformer can be easily take out from the supply for repair & maintanance.if the load on the substation increases beyond the rated values of transformer, then another transformer can be used to share rhe load of the substation.
What will happen if apply two phase supply to a three phase transformer?
A three phase transformer is simply three transformers so, supplying one phase to a set of three transformers will result in only one phase output. Any loads connected to that transformer that are expecting three phase power will malfunction, and could fail.AnswerA three-phase transformer is NOT 'three separate single-phase transformers', as suggested in the original answer. It is a single transformer with three primary and secondary phase-windings wound around a common three-limb ('core') or five-limb ('shell') core. If a single-phase supply was applied to one of the three primary windings, then single phase voltages would appear across each of the three secondary windings and the remaining two primary windings. These voltages would not be out of phase with each other.
What is a phase shifting transformer?
This applies to three-phase transformer connections. 'Phase shift' or 'angular displacement', is defined as 'the angle by which the secondary line-to-line voltage lags the primary line-to-line voltage'.Angular displacement depends on the type of transformer connection. The most common are:delta/delta results in an angular displacement of 0o or 180owye/wye results in an angular displacement of 0o or 180odelta/wye results in an angular displacement of 30o or 210owye/delta results in an angular displacement of 0o or 180oThe angular displacement for all possible combinations of three-phase transformer connections are listed in transformer vector group charts.Angular displacement determines whether or not it would be possible to parallel different types of three-phase transformer connections. For example, from the above data, it would be impossible to parallel, for example, a delta/delta transformer with a delta/wye transformer.

What is the purpose of OC and SC tests on single phase transformer?
Open circuit and short circuit tests are performed to determine transformer characteristics. In the case of a single phase transformer, SC tests would be performed to determine the impedance. The open circuit test will give excitation information (% excitation at specific voltages, often 90%, 100% and 110%, and no load losses).

What is the requirement of three phase to five phase transformation?
If you want a five-phase supply you need to start with a three-phase supply and a transformer that has 15 symmetrical cores. But why would one need a five-phase supply . . three is enough.
What will be the output if you apply a single phase on all three wires of supply side of a transformer?
Your question is confusing because you give absolutely no information on the transformer, such as its turns ratio, or any information about the supply voltage. Presumably, though, you are describing a three-phase transformer, as you refer to three wires? Again this is confusing, because you do not describe how you would supply single phase to 'all three wires'!
What happen when 220v dc is applied to a 220v ac single phase transformer?
The current would rise until it blows the fuse or breaker and that would produce an arc as the transformer's inductance tries to maintain the current.
How do you connect 480 vac three phase power to a 480 vac single phase transformer?
If the primary and the secondary windings of the three phase transformer are connected in delta, you cannot get a healthy neutral from it but why bother? You simply drive a rod into earth and use it as a neutral. Alternatively either the primary or the secondary windings must be connected as star and you use the common point as neutral.
If the loads were only 240v on a single phase 240v system with a center tapped transformer the neutral conductor would carry?
If the loads are balanced, the neutral conductor in a single-phase 240V system with a center-tapped transformer would carry no current, as the currents flowing in opposite directions would cancel each other out. If the loads are unbalanced, the neutral conductor would carry the difference in currents between the two lines.
What is the procedure to polarity test a 3 phase transformer?
A 'polarity test' is conducted on a single-phase transformer, not a three-phase transformer (or transformer bank). The polarity of a single-phase transformer being important if two transformers are to be connected in parallel, or three transformers are going to be connected to form a three-phase transformer bank.'Angular displacement' is, to a three-phase transformer, what 'polarity' is to a single-phase transformer. So you really should be asking about angular displacement, rather than polarity. Angular displacement, or 'phase displacement', is the angle by which the secondary line voltage lags the primary line voltage.Angular displacement can be determined either by drawing a phasor diagram of the three-phase connection and measuring it, or by looking up the connection in a vector-group chart/table -you would nor normally 'calculate' angular displacement.
